| Music has been a major force in my life since day one. My first cry became my first song! I have since lived my life as an artist and nothing makes more sense to me than the feeling you get from really good music.
I'm not your typical artist looking for fame and fortune. I accept only what's good for my soul. And I give only what is good to yours.
I work with a producer and a composer - Ryakin Riptua of Warclub and Damian Valentine of Damian Valentine Music. My rapport with these guys is almost second nature. These gents are my saving grace.
I've been singing for as long as I can remember. It wasn't something I grew up thinking I would do. But it was always first in my heart of all the different things I could have become. So it is safe to say, Music has chosen me. And I graciously follow.
I am a storyteller. I want you to see the story that I am singing about. I want you to know what I am feeling as well as what the person being sang to is feeling. Hope that made sense.
My favorite artist is Donny Hathaway. All others I enjoy, but in my opinion, Donny is the reason why music was made. Consequently, my favorite song is Holding Back The Years by Simply Red. The reason being, it was my brothers favorite song before his death. Thus the song has become that one power ballad that moves me to tears.
Everything I've accomplished musically I owe to God. For had it not been for Him, I wouldn't know what being able to sing feels like. And I love the feeling I get from singing. I feel that much closer to God. I thank Him always.
And finally, I would like to thank any and everyone who may come across this site and actually read the bio as well as hear the music. I appreciate your support and feedback. Feel free to pass my site onto everyone. Thank you all!
Oh me.....I'm Chris, but you can call me Mista' YOUNGBLOOD!!!
